My little Zoe is almost 5 months old. She was quite a biter. Started as playful nibbles and became hard and painful. She'd also jump at our noses and try to bite. Fortunately firm no's, loud ouch's and abrupt loss of attention has finally gotten her out of it. Now she will mouth my hands, but not bite hard. Also, about the barking. When she just turned 4 months, she suddenly discovered her voice and barked at everything. She drove us all nuts the first couple of days. This just lasted a couple of weeks, and now she barks at strange dogs or sometimes when she's playing with her other dogs, and that's about all. Your baby may outgrow this as well.
Wishing you the best!!!!!! |
